Chapter 61_ Scene
A long silence engulfed the whole ward after Kyle spoke out to Arya..
She snapped out of her thoughts after a while and placed the flask on the side table next to his bed, She got up from the bed and was about to leave..
“I’ll get you some water”
Kyle held her hand and pulled her back to sit on the bed..
“You heard me clearly Arya.. let’s get married again”
Arya suddenly felt hot in the ward, what changed his mind so soon? just yesterday he was strongly against the idea of tying the knot with her..
“You are quite aware of what you’re getting us into right?” She asked in uncertainty, she didn’t want him to feel pressured into getting married to her again..
Kyle took both of her hands in his and stared deeply into her eyes..
“All I need is your approval and I’ll get the rest done.. I know you might detest the idea but you’re very free to live your life the way you want even after we are married”
Arya was left puzzled by his words, did he bang his head when he fell yesterday? she unconsciously raised the back of her palm to his forehead..
“Are you sure you’re alright? I’ll get Chad if you’re feeling uncomfortable”
Kyle snorted, just when he had practiced on how to ask her nicely to marry him and here she was checking if he was sick..
“What kind of a lady are you? I’m just trying to be nice and you think I’m sick in the head”
Arya sprang up to her feet with a smirk, she wasn’t surprised at the 360 degree turn his words just took.
“That’s more like the Kyle I know.. you got me scared for a second you know?”
Kyle arched a brow followed by a loud scoff “I wasn’t joking about the marriage part Arya.. that’s the only way out of this sh*t you created last night!”
Arya gasped softly and smacked his chest feigning anger..
“You insolent man! your overbearing girlfriend caused everything and I had to intervene that way.. but as far as I remember you didn’t push me away infact you reciprocated.. and you dare lay accusations on me?”
“I’ve always known you were a shameless lady.. you greedily pounced on me and I was caught off guard with no other choice”..
Arya tugged her hair, he was driving her nuts and here she was worrying about his health all throughout last night..
“Well I think you’re the most shameless being I’ve ever come across.. you’re trying to pin the whole thing on me”
The door suddenly pushed open and a kid burst in through the door, Ray pulled both his parents together and engulf them in an embrace..
“Hey little man” Kyle called out to Ray patting his back gently..
Mia came in with a small basket of fruits, she placed it next to the flask on the table before averting her attention to the three..
“by the looks of things here.. I can tell that you’re okay big bro.. see Arya I told you not to worry too much” Mia commented taking a seat on the plush cushion in the ward..
“Arya, i didn’t sleep well last night and also the previous night because you weren’t around.. please don’t leave like that again”
Arya planted a kiss on his forehead and nodded in reply, she has also missed him a lot lately..
“I give you my word on that”

Chloe was woken up by a blaring car’s horn under her window..
She grabbed one of her pillows and pressed it against her ears when the car’s horning sound seemed to get louder..
Out of rage she threw her pillow aside and pulled the duvet off her body, her feet found its way to her pink colored slippers..
Chloe stood up from the bed and walked towards her window, she pushed it open and looked down at the car..
“Just because you own a nice car doesn’t mean you can disturb other people’s sweet dreams! f*ck off!” She lashed out and turned around walking back to her bed to continue her sweet slumber when she realized something..
She hurried back to the window and peered down only to meet the burning gaze of the owner of the car..
“You?! what are you doing here so early?”
Bryan sighed seeing her disheveled hair which meant she just woke up “I’m coming in”
Immediately he said that Chloe’s eyes widened in shock, her brothers were all at home, did she forget to mention how they detest all of her male friends?
She snapped out of her daze and looked down once more but he wasn’t there anymore, her face went pale when she heard the doorbell..
Without wasting any much time she scurried out of her room unbothered about her current look..
Meanwhile…
Liam who just took a sip out of his tea spat it out the moment he saw who was at the door.
Bryan frowned in disgust at the latter’s behavior, it seemed to him that her family were full of weird people..
“I know you! I’ve seen you on TV.. you’re Mr Bryan Alexander!”
“Bryan Alexander?!” The rest of the three brothers screamed out in shock and disbelief when they overheard the name that fell out of Liam’s mouth..
Liam stepped aside granting Bryan entrance into their home, he couldn’t risk to offend the young lad at all..
Arnold raised a brow when his gaze met that of Bryan..
“What brings you to our home Mr Alexander?” Arnold’s hostile tone came..
“I’m here for your sister” Bryan said with a smirk, he could swear that he had seen this young man in front of him somewhere..
Chloe suddenly dashed down the stairs to stop Bryan from coming in but her feet paused on its own when she noticed how late she was and also the tense situation in the room..
“Umm.. you all are awake?”
Arnold placed his mug of coffee on the table and turned to her with a questioning gaze..
“Do you know who this young man here is?”
Chloe rested her gaze for a moment on Bryan, the heavens knew how bad she wanted to deny him but remembering her deal with him and the amount of money she might lose if she denied him made her nod her head without hesitation..
“Yes, he’s a friend”
Bryan casually walked past Arnold brushing his shoulder with his, he sat on the cushion and raised one leg over the other..
“Thanks for offering me a seat” Bryan sarcastically remarked..
“A friend? just a friend? it doesn’t seem so to me.. I know him well enough Chloe”
Chloe slapt her forehead in frustration, these five men in this room were real trouble to her whole existence..Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
She inwardly cussed at Bryan for creating such a scene in her house, why was he even here in the first place?
“What relationship do you have with my sister?!”
Bryan glanced towards Chloe and then back to Arnold who just asked him a question..
“She’s my girlfriend do you have a problem with that?” Bryan retorted back for Chloe’s eyes to grow large, did he have any idea of what he was doing?
Arnold’s knuckles tightened, he suddenly rushed up to Bryan only to be held back by his three brothers..
“How dare you?!” Arnold barked out..
Chloe walked towards Bryan and grabbed his arm..”I need to speak with you outside”
***
Dennis strode into his living room like a raging beast, he yanked off his tie and flinged it across the room in anger..
His wife Rita who was going through a gossip magazine was startled by his sudden entrance, she closed her magazine and sprang up to her feet..
“Honey.. is everything okay?”
Dennis placed a hand on his waist and the other by the side of his temple.
“Nothing is okay Rita! nothing at all, my dad has completely lost his mind by choosing to get Arya and Kyle married”
Rita creased her brows, so? what was there to be upset about? weren’t they married before now? or was there something else she was missing here?
“Okay? what’s the big deal?”
Dennis snapped his head to her which made her pause her lips, judging by the look on his face the news was really a bad one for them..
“The big deal? the big deal is everything will be over! if Kyle gets married to that lady again all my efforts from the starts will be completely pointless!”
Rita had a look of confusion on her face even though she didn’t have a slightest idea of what he was mad about..
“Just to be sure.. how is this affecting us exactly?”
Dennis opened his mouth to speak but suddenly recalled that his wife shouldn’t know about what he was about to say..
Only he and Martin knew well enough the danger Arya possessed to them if she eventually got married to Kyle..
“Nevermind about that.. I need to speak with Martin where is he?”
Rita pointed upward indicating where Martin was, she badly wanted to know what it is they were keeping from her..
“Is this about Kyle’s lover?” Rita asked to see Dennis freeze on his spot..
